sandra isaksson is one of my very favourite print designers, and with her brand isak she was exhibiting at pulse 2007. sandra designs the most fantastic plates, trays, books & prints. new since we last looked is the addition of wallpaper, in these great designs shown above and below.

absolute zero degrees were showing their brilliant mini modernsproducts at pulse, including a new range of cushions and fabrics. available by the metre in two prints - 'dozen o dots' and 'town square' in either plastic coated or cotton fabric. check the mini moderns site to see more great designs including wallpaper and tableware.

respected designer petra boase is a pulse regular, new lines at this years show included gift wrap and lampshades. ive featured petra's amazing cards before, she has great style and here in the UK she has proved to be pretty influential.
